10/31/17 - Marker Mayhem, Spiders, Abstraction, Pumpkins

PreK: We got on the floor and colored a long strip of brown paper with whatever we liked and then used the paper to play games with.
K & Gr 1: We finished up the spider webs and added pipe cleaner spiders.
Gr 2 & Gr 3: We talked about Abstraction and how it makes the familiar unfamiliar and how we could make something we know well, like our name, appear to be different from what it is. More work coming... Gr 4 & 5: We learned a thing or two about using oil pastels by drawing a pumpkin still-life on black paper through observation. (The secret is in the first colors you put down and how things get layered on top.)Not many pictures to see today - class flies by often!
